To reduce airport delays and gridlock, in combination with ADS-B and RNP - the Split-Runway technology makes it possible to greatly increase runway capacity and save a tremendous amount of jet fuel in the process. To fully implement this innovative process testing at a number of locations is important and can be accomplished through simulation, virtual and flight testing. This of course is a timely effort and very important to the U. S. and world economy to continue our marvelous and developed air transportation system. If we do not act, than many airlines may go out of business effecting manufacturers of parts, support equipment and aircraft.
